    Don't wake me when this is over
    Just let me drift amidst my dreams
    I need to regain composure
    And right now my heart is still and asleep
    I refuse to believe
    That we've become so obsolete
    Don't wake me when this is over
    'Cause I need to find the time lost in between
    If we get back (get back)
    To lovin' each other (lovin' each other)
    Can we get back (get back)
    To learnin' how to live?
    We are strangers in this land
    With so much left to discover
    Can we get back
    To learnin' how to live?
    We look to the heavens above for advice on our lives
    Searching for God at the bottoms of bottles and in strangers' eyes
    We're living in desperation, drowning in medication
    Lost in the folly of our age
    If we get back (get back)
    To lovin' each other (lovin' each other)
    Can we get back (get back)
    To learnin' how to live?
    We are strangers in this land
    With so much left to discover
    Can we get back
    To learnin' how to live?
    We are strangers in this land

    All those years this beast of an artist was hidden in a project called Alexisonfire. I celebrate Dallas decided to continue by himself he made me love rock music again, and I love Alexisonfire don't missunderstand me. But I love 100 times more City and Colour.

    • @buzzseven
      @buzzseven 4 года назад +1

      @christ is the key to salvation the success, where did they successed? like in Canada ha ha, here in Europe nobody knows AOF. But Dallas had a sold out in Paris already. If you cannot understand what I'm saying, then you don't know the diference between 3 chords songs and the chromatic, melodic evolution above the music of city and colour.

    • @buzzseven
      @buzzseven 4 года назад +2

      @christ is the key to salvation When will you start to talk about music properly? You said blah blah blah had no talk about grades, intervalic, harmony, scales, modes, notes. Tell me in music language why AOF is way better than City and Colour. I will start here with the real argument, the range of voice of Dallas in City and Colour is fully used, all the way he is capable, because he is harmonicly using the whole chromatic scale in his songs, thus with the clever use of a capo on his “other ways” tunned guitar, making him an original guitar player in the world, nobody is doing in the acoustic guitar what Dallas is doing in City and Colour actually. While in AOF he just plays the same scale in the same range, just like his voice never doing even a falsetto there, standard or drop D tunning in guitar a very common affination. So in variety, comparing City and Colour with AOF is like comparing a Cirque du Soleil with Puddles Pitty Party. LOL

    • @fredjenner
      @fredjenner 4 года назад

      Man shut up if you know so much about music theory then where's your music? You're just throwing a word salad of basic music terms out there that you probably don't even understand because if you did you'd realise the arrangements of AOF are more complex and have way more depth to them!! And that's coming from someone who loved C&C first 2 and a bit albums.. then he sold out and started making boring generic pop tunes..
